Emergency Light Testing & Maintenance for UK Properties

BS 5266 compliant emergency lighting servicing — monthly function tests, annual three-hour duration tests and full system reports.

Keep escape routes safe and compliant

Emergency lighting is a legal requirement for almost every commercial property in the UK. Guardian Fire Solutions provides BS 5266 emergency lighting testing and maintenance for offices, retail, hospitality, education and residential blocks across London and the wider UK.

We carry out short monthly function tests and the full annual three-hour duration test, replace failed luminaires and batteries, and provide a clear certificate and logbook entry after every visit. Our reports are written so insurers, landlords and fire authorities can read them at a glance.

Routine servicing reduces sudden failures, extends battery life and keeps your property compliant with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
